Author’s Intent: Mastering Craft & Structure
Understand the writer: Outsmart the test: Boost your score.
Hi! I’m Luciana, and I scored a 710 on the SAT Reading & Writing section — and now, I’m here to help you do the same, or better!
In this prep course, we’ll break down one of the trickiest and most misunderstood parts of the SAT: Craft & Structure. These questions go beyond just reading. They test how well you understand why an author writes the way they do — their tone, word choice, structure, point of view, and purpose.
Together, we’ll work on: Identifying tone and style (and avoiding trap choices), figuring out why the author chose a certain word or phrase, understanding text structure and how ideas flow, Analyzing author’s point of view and bias, and mastering purpose questions like “Why did the author include this?”
We'll use real College Board material, but also go beyond it — working with top-quality practice questions from other reputable sources that are very similar to the SAT’s style and difficulty. This means more practice, more variety, and better preparation.
See you in there to learn how to read smarter, not harder!🌟🌟
